It's amazing but actually doesn't surprise me because Lexus is the most reliable brand out there right now. I've just done regular maintenance. I don't even have the carbon buildup issue because I drive it aggressively every once in a while and give it a WOT
But yeah, no problems at all. I'll probably just run it into the ground and then do an engine swap if I feel the want to...

Visors looks great, I remember when I got rid of my dash lights (TPMS as well), felt like I had just got a new car

thanks yohan

it really does feel that way, I just wish I could get rid of that AFS light now

I'm liking the visors a lot right now. I'm also thinking about removing my yellow tints from my fogs now since you pointed out how it doesn't really match anything.. haha it's true so I think one of these days I'll remove 'em. I just want to wait til I can get some nice HID bulbs for them cause all I have now is those ugly stock temperature bulbs. That's why I made them yellow in the first place haha.

not even lol, your car looks really good. not even close to stock.

I never calculated it out but if I was to do a quick calculation in my head right now, it was about
+$900 for ISF conversion, paint, and install (I got a discount, so it was actually less)
+$300 wald spoiler from carking on ebay
+$100 carbon fiber roof spoiler
+$300 ISF tail light corners (bought off clublexus member)
+$1500-ish for wald isf diffuser (also got a discount on this one too)
______
so about $3,000+ ish for everything

Thank you, I appreciate it. And RVCA is truly a great company, I've had an awesome time with them.
